As an employee, you play an important role in our development work. The municipality as a workplace is characterized by consensus between politics and operations, where the shared interest and responsibility for Vallentuna's success shines through.

About the Unit:
The Children and Family Unit consists of committed employees, most of whom have many years of experience working with our target groups. We have close management support, share responsibility, and help each other across group boundaries. The vision for the Children and Family Unit is to become the best at collaboration and to increase knowledge about social services among municipality residents and partners. The reception group consists of four reception secretaries and two Early Support coordinators who work preventively against norm-breaking behavior. The group is experienced, engaged, and enjoys working together.
As part of valuing the balance between work and leisure, we offer some remote work. On Mondays we're open until 18:30, which means we finish at 15:00 on Fridays. The day before a public holiday is a half day, and we have reduced staffing during peak periods. We offer flexible hours, external supervision, possibility for vacation exchange, wellness subsidy or wellness hours, and free employee parking. The workplace is centrally located in Vallentuna, just minutes from Roslagsbanan and several bus lines. The municipal office is new and modern with opportunities for close collaboration with other units and departments.

The reception has a clear collaboration mandate both internally and externally. We often go out to schools and other locations to inform about social services work and largely serve as the face of the children and family unit to the outside world.
We're looking for someone who has worked with exercising authority with children and youth and feels confident in that role. You work independently and are accustomed to making assessments and decisions. In your role, you are trustworthy, clear, and demonstrate good and humble treatment of people. If you're also flexible and motivated by a partially event-driven workday, reception is the right place for you.

For this position, a degree in social work is required
Experience exercising authority with children and youth
Good ability to communicate in Swedish, both spoken and written
Meritorious: Knowledge of Signs of Safety and MI, as well as a B driver's license
